NO. I am using Firefox with my MBP Intel and no problem.
I have check her conection as well and is all good.
I have changed the wifi as well from 2.4 to 5 and still having the same problem
I have cheched the internet connection and is all good.
Might be the Roseta? Firefox still not full compatible for M1
How long a time? Does it vary?
or is it after some ‘action’ (e.g., visiting a particular website, clicking somewhere in the browser window, etc.)?
Again, just to be clear: toggling WiFi off/on doesn’t help?
What about fully quitting FFX (not just closing all windows), then reopening?
What about fully quitting FFX, toggling wifi, then reopening FFX?
Apologies for the hella Qs, just trying to help drill down to find a possible solution for you. ? Haven’t heard of this issue anywhere else.

Had similar problem with the Rosetta Firefox -> install the Beta version which supports M1 natively. I have no problems with this one

Just to add -> I had one issue with not being able to select the open tabs (as if the GUI froze), but updated it today (to newer beta) and no issues anymore
Firefox Beta 84.0beta, See All New Features, Updates and Fixes

Seems like the Beta and uBlock Origin don’t play well together at the moment, but if OP doesn’t use UO, then no issue.
Early adopter = friendly user tester.
When Firefox stops, if Safari still works, one can rule out anything having to do with System or Network.

After sometime using Firefox but I can't say after how long. Sometimes quicker. I've tried to toggling the wifi but doesn't help the same quitting FFX.
Thanks for you help anyway
I use FF/Chrome/Safari with almost no issue.
Only issue I see is that Google Meet doesn't run smoothly on Safari with more than 50 people.

I'd recommend the Nightly Build. Works better than the Beta.

The post from Fredmcd on this thread solved my problem of addons not working with the beta: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1315680
Interesting. I only had to update to 84b8 and all my addons starting working again. Particularly uBlock Origin.
Extensions aren’t architecture specific. They should all be working now.
